EID Seminar Series - Influenza and SARS-CoV-2: from virus evolution to vaccine design

This seminar will cover three major research questions in the Wu lab: 1) What are the constraints of virus evolution? 2) Can we predict antibody specificity? 3) Can we improve the quality and speed of vaccine design? My lab addresses these questions in the context of influenza virus and SARS-CoV-2.
